As far as I can understand it, they are like an almost-clone of Debian where all systemd packages and dependencies are removed from all the packages. But trying to replace the whole catalogue of Debian's packages must be a huge task.

A friend suggested I should try this os, the installation was easy enough, he did the work. Used gnome desktop as told it was not so easy to change from windows to linux with a lot of configuration needed. He said gnome is ready for anyone to use. So good so far, seemed not so much different to Windows. Very slow on my old computer.
Im writing this from MX Linux which a classmate suggested, it is far more enjoyable to use as well as really easy to install. feels much faster too.

Proudly did it on my own although Im not so bright in computer stuff, really amazed my boyfriend.
I have a secret, I Learnt how from you tube.

When it comes to learning MX/AntiX on YouTube, the real secret weapon is Mr. (and lately Mrs. too) dolphin_oracle. Having someone who is integrated into the development of the distros--and also a skilled user---and also a good teacher with a public face--is an awesome thing that no other distro can offer. Or at least not with the same depth and longevity.

Thanks to all the People where created this nice Distro. I'm using Linux for so many years, but i have dont see so one complet and simple distro before ! My Grandma can install this on a PC ;-)
MX Linux listet on Distrowatch under the 10 most interested distros, and i must say : It's not a wonder ! I installed on my Desktop PC, my Laptop, and on my Notebook and all overall its working fine.
Its very simple to create a own MX Linux with the snapshoot tool - fantastic !!!
Sorry for my bad englisch, and many greatings from a happy MX Linux user from germany
